Men's Leather Wristband Bracelet with Dark Green Jade, "Dark Green Maya Fortress"
In olden days, Maya nobility wore jade pectorals and jewelry, for they believed the gem was sacred and more valuable than gold. Today, Pablo Roquel shares the beauty of Guatemalan jade with the world through the design of this masculine bracelet. Crafted by hand, the brown wristband bracelet is centered by dark green jade. A hidden hook adjusts the length as desired.

"I cannot wait to give this gift!"
This leather and jade bracelet is exactly what I hoped it would be, simple enough for someone who doesnt usually wear jewelry, yet a truly lovely and striking piece! The lines are clean and the jade is beautifully shaped. I have to wait two more weeks before I can present it...he will love it! Also, it arrived earlier than expected!

"Very elegant jade earrings"
I love these earrings designed by Mr. Roquel. The black and light green jade stones are polished and the right size without feeling heavy when worn. It s elegant enough to be worn for special evenings out, or in daytime with casual dresses or even jeans. Nice and very noticeable earrings.

"Stud earrings"
They are beautiful earrings, but the posts are larger than I expected and are a little too big for my ears. Maybe a better fit for a male versus a female.
